If They Said 'Put Garoppolo In,' They Must Have Worked

We will see more of this -- someone used a drone to drop leaflets on the 49ers and Raiders games -- because drones are everywhere and people will use them for things we might not want them to use them for, in places where we don't really want drones. That horse left the barn years ago. But note that the leafleting was a miserable failure, because even a light breeze will blow the flyers off course, which is what happened here. (Also, the leaflets were apparently incoherent rants about the media, so even if they landed properly, they didn't make a lot of sense.) Maybe that will serve as a deterrent. Yeah, right.
